According to Roderick Boone and Scott Fowler of the Charlotte Observer, Kai Jones’ status on the team is “murky” ahead of the training camp that will get underway in October. The 2021 first-round pick has been a no-show during the voluntary sessions for players.

Jones has been making the headlines for his outlandish social media activity. Following that, all players on the Hornets roster have unfollowed him. He caught flak for claiming to be better than his teammates and also some NBA legends, including 6-time NBA champion Michael Jordan.

While claiming to be better than basketball greats, LeBron James and Shaquille O’Neil, Kai dragged Michael Jordan into the fray. He wrote, ?Bro I hit middy better than Mike [Michael Jordan]?. In addition, his bizarre behavior during a recent IG Live has left the Hornets concerned.
